I have a copy of the program Pyro, version 0.5, and I've discovered a
problem with it.  It is supposed to be deactivated when you hold down
the Left-Alt and Ctrl key combination, but I've discovered that it
actually turns off if the Ctrl key is pressed at any time.  This is,
it would seem to me, a major flaw, since I have it installed in my
telecommunications disk startup-sequence - control key combinations
are a big part of telecommunication.

Does anybody have either (A) a fix for it, or (B) a newer version that
actually works, or (C) a different screen blanker that is reliable?
Note: I only want a screen blanker, not dMouse or anything else that
has a blanker built in; I already have one of those.  They take up
too much room on a VERY full disk (I only have 3 blocks free).

Please email any responses and/or replacement programs to me below.
I'll be forever grateful, and in about 150 years, I might even name
my first-born child after you!  (If I like your name, that is!)
